Structural properties of two well-known families of keystream generators, Shrinking Generators and Cellular Automata, have been analyzed. Emphasis is on the equivalence of the binary sequences obtained from both kinds of generators. In fact, Shrinking Generators (SG) can be identified with a subset of linear Cellular Automata (mainly rule 90, rule 150 or a hybrid combination of both rules). The...

An urgent issue of the state (level) safety Ukraine’s nuclear power industry in extreme conditions is situation Zaporizhzhia NPP, largest Europe, due to station’s location war zone and difficulties its management operation, as well regulation station occupied territory. In proposed article, possibility Zaporizhia NPP industrial site flooding analyzed from elaborated hydrodynamic model justifyin...

During past 3 decades, nuclear medicine has flourished as vibrant and independent medical specialty in Iran. Since that time, more than 200 nuclear physicians have been trained and now practicing in nearly 158 centers throughout the country. In the same period, Tc-99m generators and variety of cold kits for conventional nuclear medicine were locally produced for the first time. Local production...

The library implements several types of generators in generic form, as well as many specific generators proposed in the literature or found in widely-used software. It provides general implementations of the classical statistical tests for random number generators, as well as several others proposed in the literature, and some original ones. These tests can be applied to the generators predefin...

Fast and reliable pseudo-random number generators are required for simulation and other applications in Scientific Computing. We outline the requirements for good uniform random number generators, and describe a class of generators having very fast vector/parallel implementations with excellent statistical properties. We also discuss the problem of initialising random number generators, and con...

BACKGROUND South African nuclear medicine imaging departments have been fortunate in being able to receive an uninterrupted supply of molybdenum-99 (99Mo)/technetium-99m (99mTc) generators. Nuclear medicine radiographers practising in private sector services in the northern Gauteng region indicated a possible problem with the quantities of wasted and unused 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals returned t...

this paper presents a novel salient pole synchronous generator i.e. permanentmagnet-assisted salient-pole synchronous generator (pma-sgs). due to saturationof conventional synchronous generators (sgs), permanent-magnet-assisted salientpolesynchronous generators (pma-sgs) are presented. pma-sgs are a new type ofsalient-pole synchronous machines with extra permanent magnets (pms) betweenthe adjac...

The study of pion production and the effects final state interactions (FSI) are important for data analysis in all neutrino experiments. For energies at which current experiments being operated, a significant contribution to is made by resonance process. After its production, if absorbed nuclear matter, event may become indistinguishable from quasi-elastic scattering process acts as background....

The objective of this paper is to measure the price impacts of the major regulatory interventions in the England & Wales wholesale electricity market from 1 April 1990 to 31 March 2002. More particularly, to establish whether falling prices during 1999-2002 were caused by the regulator (‘Ofgem 7 forcing the dominant duopoly of fossil fuel generators to divest coal-fired plant, or because the Po...
